PED's

When people consider taking steroids, they most likely are only considered about the "pros" of the enhancer, rather than researching the terrible long lasting [|side affects]. Along with the downfall of steroids and many other performance enhancing drugs causing harm to the body, they also take away from the true spirit and meaning of sports. Back when athletics were just beginning to originate, PED's were unheard of. Some of the greatest athletes come from way back, and got where they did by training hard, eating healthy, and by their love for that sport. Today, rather than hitting the gym a few extra times a week, having a healthy diet, a personal trainer, or working on fast footwork, athletes seem to be turning to PED's to get them to where they want to be physically. The use of PED's in certain athletes is unjust for other athletes who are naturally good at sports, and work hard for what they want. The true spirit of athletics comes from the hard work and dedication, not from a bottle off a store shelf.
